JUST IN: Court Sentences Man To Death For Killing Uber Driver

An FCT high court has sentenced one Mister Obinna Echanu to death by hanging for killing an Uber driver.

Obinna was standing trial alongside one Mister Everly Nnerun for allegedly conspiring to kill the Uber driver identified as Edwin Ali on December 26th, 2016 along the Abuja airport road.The accused were charged with five counts which include armed robbery, conspiracy, illegal possession of firearms and culpable homicide.

Delivering his judgment, Justice Peter Kekemeke discharged and acquitted Nnerun for lack of evidence by the prosecutor, which is the Nigerian Police, but convicted Echanu and sentenced him to death by hanging as his counsel failed to prove his innocence before the court.

suffer not a witch to live. he that kills by the sword shall die by the sword.

That's good let's see Action

I pray it goes beyond that.we want execution.

The pain he cause our family can never be amended.....even with his sentence

When it was that woman who killed her husband intentionally, you all were saying she shouldn't be killed but you're here backing another's killing. Justify this. The law clearly states that whoever kills must be killed. We should be talking of those bastard bokoharam

We want to start seeing execution not just the sentence

Waiting to hear the news of the hanging. We use to hear man sentenced to death by hanging.

A good one,the family have received justice.

Where's the faux outrage. Zero energy levels when the tables are turned.
